taterhill Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 I heard that Putin's arm was going into a tuck, so the ring is his...no fumble...tuck rule is once again in effect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of BiB Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 He needs to do his homework. It's worse in the Middle East, but also common in Russia. If someone admires something of yours you can say thank you. If someone admires something of yours, and you HAND IT TO THEM, by their culture it is considered a gift. When you go to someone elses country, you should check out a common protocol website or book, first. Putin was being a Russian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevestojan Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 Not to ever defend a patsy scum, but he did indeed give the ring to Putin... he doesn't want it back. This is a non-story. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2096909 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 I predict this will be the start of the "CURSE OF THE RUSSKIS!!" The Pats will not win another Super Bowl until Putin gives back the ring. Boston loves curses. PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if they would have checked after Putin walked off with the ring, they would have noticed that he sh-- his pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VRWC Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 "I showed the president my most recent Super Bowl ring," Kraft said in a statement released Wednesday. The Russian president "was clearly taken with its uniqueness," Kraft said. "At that point, I decided to give him the ring as a symbol of the respect and admiration that I have for the Russian people and the leadership of President Putin," Kraft said. http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/3726702 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
